[quote=smfinley]You could also try a small bungy to hold it down. Most sailing days it will stay down with gravity, but when you flip or in moderate to heavy air where the boat is bouncing fairly well is when you need to worry about it getting caught on something.
When I would raise a H16 mast it always took a little pull back on the bottom of the mast to get the mast the seat properly. I would get it most of the way up and then put my left hand lower on the mast and give it a pull backwards towards me to get it to sitdown in the base. After doing it for a while I didn't even realize I was doing it until someone else would try to raise the mast and ask what the problem was. So hipefully the new step link solves your problem, but don't be surprised if you still have the problem at least a little.[/quote]
